I don't wanna hijack the thread, but this year is my first ever to deer hunt and I am content to wait and my make first something memorable and mountable... Does look funny on the wall...
Hey Steve,
They ought to be thick around Dekalb. A friend of mine just got a buck during bow season that scored 208 net on the Pope & Young system which took 3rd Place for the State. Thanks for sending the bar. Denny
i still think you hunt at the zoo..hahaha. guy's ive seen that trophy room in person and it looks better in person, he's probably still wiping the drool off the floor from me.. nice buck steve
Hey Steve nice deer, his antlers have a nice chocolate color. Ive gotten three so far but nothing big. Just saved myself 400.00 bucks or so by not shootin the big one. LOL
Wow! Nice trophy room Steve. I'd like to get a few like that but will have to get real lucky or travel to other areas or hunt on a larger track of land. They don't let them live long enough to get that big here. It gets pretty frustrating letting decent but young deer walk and they get shot when he crosses the property line.
I've got two in the freezer for this year and wanting to bag a couple more nice does.
We've had a lot of wind this week and the nice does I saw were around 275-300 yards. Too far with with 20 mile winds and over 35 mile gusts. Only close ones have been small bucks. One decent eight pointer but still needs to grow.
